Update on the IAC’s advice

The NDIA gave IAC Members an update on changes to the NDIS.

The IAC’s advice looks at how the NDIS should focus on:

  • people’s strengths

  • human rights.

Human rights are rules about how people must treat you:

  • fairly
  • equally.

IAC Members thought about the 3 pieces of advice they are working on now.

This includes their advice about how to:

  • make the NDIS fairer

  • support what makes people different from each other

  • work in ways that support people who have experienced trauma.

Trauma is the way you feel about something bad that happened to you.

For example, you might feel scared or stressed.

Trauma can affect you for a long time.
